I'm limiting my criticism to the sole landscape general look, with no greenpuke-filter, and how landscape elements are put/mixed together, how they appear from cockpit views (specially in low level pass); how they maintain their dignity if viewed in far background. CloD is for sure a pure simulation, with strongpoints I'll never disclaim. I didn't buy WoP (just tested demo) because it's not representative as simulation 4me; but I admit that, after several years of playing Il2, when I look for some more immersive low level flight My thoughts go WoP.
Yes you are right, works for me; I'm seriously concerned cause it works just for me! ... Doctor...is so bad?
Cheers

WoP can do all that because it's an arcade game on a tiny map with green puke covering up all the stuff that doesn't look quite so good.

Well those are actually separate issues.
It's kinda like saying Cindy Crawford is ugly beacuse she has a mole and doesn't play rugby.(Choice of Cindy does put my age into perspective LOL)

It's more like...
It looks good but it's covered in green puke and is arcadey.

If you were looking for images where WoP looks better than CoD, you made a very poor choice. That CoD image almost looks like a photo.

The judgement is extremely subjective. I thought the matter can be confined in photorealistic or pleasant/enjoyable/agreeable. But we can discuss till tomorrow what is Photorealistic for me/you/allofus...

I can, and have, posted photographs that closely match what CoD looks like. You can't do the same for WoP unless you find a really crappy photographer or take the photo in REALLY crappy weather.
